10th December 2017 update: So far the items that have appeared as prizes have been pretty rubbish – there have been many days when I didn’t even bother to enter. So don’t be too disappointed if you shake the globe and find you’re offered something completely useless.

Intercontinental/Holiday Inn have a daily competition until December 25th 2017. The promotion is open to all legal residents in the European Union aged 18 years and over, excluding residents of Italy, Turkey, Russia and Poland.

You click ‘SHAKE’ and prizes start falling down the globe. You’ll also see that day’s date is among the falling items – click on that to discover the prize draw you can enter. If you don’t click on the date, you can always shake again.

Heathrow Airport announce that free wi-fi will be available from the 1st June 2013 – although my guess is that technical delays could push this date back slightly. I imagine that you would search for the wi-fi signal and then a login screen will ask you to agree and maybe also collect your email address. After that you should get 45 minutes of wi-fi for free.

If 45 minutes isn’t enough for you, then you can double this amount by applying for a free ‘Heathrow rewards’ card www.heathrow.com/rewards. This is the new name for the current ‘Worldpoints card’. The card also allows you to collect points on Heathrow airport purchases and parking. Points can be converted into vouchers, BA Avios and Virgin miles. So I ‘m guessing the free wi-fi login screen will have a field for you Rewards card number (16 digits!) or the email associated with your Rewards account (better).

Please comment on your experience with this free wi-fi service and note the terminal, connection speed and ease of login.
